Your comparison would be correct if you took the French price...

On the other hand I would recommend N900 to my friends if I knew that free OS (i.e. Mer) could be installed on the device.
Well, Xournal will be available for the N900...

Already placed order. Now just a matter of refreshing forums - over and over and over until it ships

price aside, (wtf?) i won't be buying since both the screen and the keyboard seem too small whereas the n810 seems about right.

[QUOTE=GeneralAntilles;321275]I've used the iPhone quite a bit (every single release, even), and don't much care for it.

Either way, MicroB has double-tap, too, so there's not much point discussing it.[/QUOTE

You implied that with the iPhone you had to pinch to zoom, and I believed you. The correction, that you can double-tap to zoom, was important to keep me from being mislead.

If I can't get N900 cheaper than 699,-, I'll wait for "N910" to have SDXC card support and Maemo 6.
It's like buying now a notebook without Express Card to upgrade to USB 3.0. I can't replace every year a phone and a notebook to sell it for half the price, because I need more space and/or faster ports.
With USB 3.0 und SDXC at the door, it's imho a bad time to buy something without this items. Look back SD -> SDHC and USB 1.1 -> 2.0

I don't think you have to worry that much, USB 3.0 won't be of any use to this device and SDXC would be nice but by the time we see bigger cards and acceptable price it'll be 3+ years and you'll want a new phone by then... Technologie just keeps running ahead of anything you buy!

Hm, I guess it's perhaps only you who looks at it this way... it will take very long before USB 3.0 and SDXC become a standart...think not? Look at DirectX 10...it came out in November 2006. Is it a standart? No, not even after almost 3 years. Only a small percentage of games use it. Or look at HDTV. Is 1080p a standart? No, not yet, just 720p is. And HDTV as a technology is 20 years old or more. Are touch-screen devices a standart? No, but they are close to getting there. USB 3.0? Drivers came out for Linux just this month and commercialy USB 3.0 will launch next year. I don't mean to sound negative, I'm all for new tech (i really like nanotechnology), but let's be honest and realistic. There is no point in buying a device that has it NOW (or WILL have it when it's available) day 1, when you can't use it anywhere, but at home. Let's not be naive to think a N9xx (phone) coming out next year will support USB 3.0 and SDXC, prior to computers. As much as i like Nokia, you are dreaming.
